I'm using Unraid 4.7. Log file attached

 

I keep my iTunes catalog files on my unraid servers. I was having trouble last night with permissions, itunes constantly told me I did not have the appropriate permissions to save the catalog. I then opened windows explorer, navigated to the itunes folder on tower and clicked properties --> security and granted full control for everyone. This did not fix the problem. I then restarted the server. When it finished booting I tried to navigate to \\tower as I normally do and the path is not accessible. I can view http://tower and everything looks fine from the web interface but cannot view anything through explorer.

 

Does anyone have any ideas what could have happened?

What user is logging in though explorer? Clear any stored server credentials in Windows.

I use the default username (i guess it's root), but I have never typed in a username within windows. I just remembered I have unraid installed so I went to gtower:8080 and am greeted with SAMBA is STOPPED, Shared drives will not be visible on the LAN.. In array management there is a button for 'Start Samba' but it does not work.

Use the interface at //grower. Don't use :8080 to mange the server. unMenu at 8080 is meant to be used for reporting only. The unMenu management functions should only be used in an emergency.

OK, I'm not sure where there is a 'Start Samba' button on the official interface though.

There is not.  If SAMBA is stopped, stop the array, and re-start it.  It should re-start itself.

 

You could from a telnet prompt try

/root/samba start

 

If it was killed because you are running out of free memory, reboot.  It will just be killed again otherwise.

Joe, I saw another thread you were helping on where it turned out to be memory. I have stopped all custom scripts outside of vanilla unraid and default unmenu from booting in the go script. I then restarted and ran the samba start command.
